Taylor Swift's VMA Side Story
Taylor Swift puts her hand to her heart as she sings MTV’s rendition of West Side Story’s “Tonight, Tonight,” in the official promo for the 2009 MTV VMAs.
The 19-year-old Fearless female dished to MTV recently about her version of the Broadway classic song. She shared, “My version of ‘Tonight’ was pretty theatrical, because I listened to the song and I heard the song and I’m just like, ‘There’s no way to do this and not play it up.’”

She actually has a good voice!
& its sort of powerful too.
WOW… she has an amazing voice, and I love her expression.
I’m so excited! She sounds ah-mazing here!! :D She’s so great, and lots of emotions are totally in this.
She looks great, too. I’m loving her dress + her curls + the makeup looks perfect and ties everything together. I can’t wait for her VMA performance. Best. Commercial/Promo. Ever. <3
i didn’t like it.. her voice just sounds flat.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!
She kinda looks like Marlyn Monroe!! Her haair *thud*
wow! I never knew she had such a powerful voice! YOU GO GIRL! ;D
I rlove taylor swift
She’s so pretty. i loved it!
She’s officially the ONLY teen musician who can actually sing. The rest of them (you know who I mean) seriously need to go away already.
don’t get me wrong, i love taylor swift, but in all honesty, she isn’t a great singer. she’s okay, and her songs are really catchy but it’s especially clear in this song- her voice just sounds so flat :/
i think the appeal with taylor swift is that since her voice isn’t anything extraordinary it’s easy to sing along to, and she’s a great songwriter.
i major in musical theatre and i am completely obsessed with west side story- i like her rendition of it, but compared to the original, it’s nothing.
Oh my gosh, I got chills! :D I am a huge WSS fan, I’m so excited to see all the different artists’ clips put together :) Taylor sounds really good here, I love how theatrical it all is :)
Wow, that was awful.
@me: I know, she is the only one with a big future.
i love taylor! but im not a huge fan of broadway…. but its still good
@me: I don’t hate Taylor, but it’s ridiculous to say she’s the only one who can really sing. Just cause you’re biased against others doesn’t mean they don’t have great abilities.
that was definitely majorly edited. no way does she sound like that.
don’t get me wrong. i like taylor swift but that wasn’t her real voice at all
i LOVE LOVE LOVE taylor and i LOVE LOVE LOVE west side story. im just not sure im reading for the 2 to mix.
typo, meant “ready” for the 2 to mix.
WTF she doesn’t sound good……….. you better stay as a songwritter honey… be a perfomance is hard
She has a talent in song writing but not in singing. Especially songs that require a certain type of vocals.
I really wish MTV would stop trying to ruin classic things.
ugh i didn’t really like it…
Sorry not good at all. I don’t get what the whole hype is about her
I had no idea her voice was so powerful shes amazing and other teens can sing :/ have you not heard demi lovato ?
Her voice is amazing!
Can’t wait to see her and Britney!
@SJS:
Okay. Name me another teen musician who isn’t Disney related who can sing? I know they exist, but I sure can’t think of any who get the same exposure as the disney bunch and Taylor Swift.
